HUNTSVILLE, Ala. – Friday, a judge dismissed a lawsuit by pro-life advocates to shut down Huntsville’s only women’s clinic that provides abortions.

The Alabama Women’s Center for Reproductive Alternatives re-opened last month at a location at 4831 Sparkman Drive, after receiving the appropriate approval from the City of Huntsville Zoning Board and the Department of Public Health.

Friday, Judge Alan Mann cited a lack of standing when he dismissed the case. He also denied a temporary restraining order against against the clinic.

Court documents show the suit was dismissed with prejudice, so it cannot be filed again.

In his ruling, Mann said:

“This Court does not render the decisions contained herein lightly and does so only after having thoroughly considered and carefully reviewed all of the submissions in support of, and in opposition to, defendants’ motion to dismiss and supplement to motion to dismiss. The Court has taken into account all of the arguments of counsel, the testimony and evidence presented at the hearing, as well as all of the relevant and applicable law. The Court does not in this case, nor should it in any case, interpose personal feelings or politics in the rendering of a just and legal decision.”

Why do some people have to force their beliefts on everyone else?. If you don’t believe in abortion don’t have one. That simple. You don’t believe in birth control either and are determined to force this belief down others throats. I had much rather someone have access to birth control than to have to resort to abortion. Some women have health issues which requires them to have an abortion. Why not just stay out of eveyone’s life and tend to you own, pro-choicers? Oh, and by the way, war is NOT pro-life.
